MY NILGIRIS..........

I wonder the fearless attitude of local people of Nilgiris. When we travel up  and down  of the hilly areas ,often come across different types of wild animals.They are fond of  planet products and learned to be more Eco- friendly.Wild elephants,oxen, deer,pigs,etc come very close to the hamlets.Observing their activities ....is really interesting.During this weekend I had a visit to my friend's house there I spent long  time with them.This visit was important and memorable ,because there were more guests other than family members.A troop of monkeys were playing and making a lot of fun near the corridor ,one among them was eating papaya leaf ;by seeing this.... somebody commented  they might be eating it to prevent from fever [papaya leaves are good medicine for all kind of fever.] the little  one was crazy throwing something on the elder ones........chasing and running .....I was so happy to watch this .... enjoyed it a lot.

WILD ELEPHANT............I was lucky to watch wild elephant.

Weed cutting

Application of technology in rural farming.

Nowadays,The Indian farmers are in a mode of change.Application of technology in rural farming is widespread .There is a shift from tradition to modern.Many innovative ideas and methods are experimenting in daily farming.This is due to various factors.The main reason is increasing wages.The farmers are not able to afford the daily expenses while comparing with the reward from farm.They always consider cost and benefits in order to survive.Also  there is a tendency to make interpersonal relation among each other.They share not only the new ideas but the materials too. This year sufficient rain improved the growth of cultivation as well as weeds;removing it from cultivated land is a great task.Even the small farmers say, they automatically depend on weed cutting machine;but it should be handled with much care, otherwise there is a chance to cuts off saplings along with unwanted weeds. Despite removed weeds will become good manure; they have become more organic, dream of bright future. T
